Chapter 10 A Chance Encounter
In the afternoon magic class, Lu finally returned to his usual self. As for the magic training, he was still training on soul magic, but in the end he trained for a long time, because the failure of the training caused him to suffer backlash, which made him
He spat out a large mouthful of blood, which frightened Alice and Althea again. Alice immediately used healing magic to treat him. Fortunately, the injury was not serious, and Lu was just resting.
He recovered after a while, and Alsia suggested that he should not practice soul magic for the time being. After all, it is very dangerous to practice soul magic without anyone's guidance. A situation like this might not be possible.
All are considered lucky.
Lu, in turn, smiled and refuted Althea.
"Alsia, have you forgotten? In my previous life, I was the Demon King Solomon. Didn't I also create soul magic without anyone's guidance?"
"..."
"..."
Hearing what he said, Alice and Alsia were speechless and had no way to refute. In the end, Lu assumed that they both agreed with what he said and continued to practice soul magic, but
After practicing for so long, he still has not made any progress.
The class ended quickly. Lu was so absorbed in training that he didn't even notice that it was time for school to end. Finally, he noticed it after Alice reminded him.
It was time for school to end. Lu and the others had space bracelets on their arms, so there was no need to pack them up. They were waiting for Selena at the gate of the academy. During this time, everyone had already decided what to do.
After school, special training was held at Alice's mansion, so they were all waiting for Selena's arrival.
Selena appeared in their sight after waiting for about 5 minutes. After the four of them arrived, they walked out of the academy gate and headed towards Alice's mansion.
On the way, Lu and the others were walking and chatting. At this time, a child bumped into Alice. The child who bumped into was a child wearing a beret and wearing dirty clothes.
"I'm sorry, I'm really, really sorry."
"It's okay, don't take it to heart."
The child kept apologizing to Alice. After getting Alice's forgiveness, he hurriedly left. But at this time, Lu grabbed his body. This made the child, Alice and the others
I am also very confused.
"Lu, what are you doing?"
"Alice, where is the purse you put on your waist?"
After Lu's reminder, Alice touched her waist and found that the money bag around her waist was indeed missing.
"No need to look for it, it's here."
With that said, Lu picked up the child and shook it a few times, and several money bags fell out of his dirty clothes.
"Tell me, what's going on? Also, are those people hiding in the alley over there your companions? If you hear this, you don't have to hide anymore. Come out quickly."
As Lu said this, a few menaceous looking people who looked like hooligans walked out of the alley nearby.
"Brother, this matter has nothing to do with you. As long as you hand him over, I will let you leave unscathed."
Seeing the aggressive look of these gangsters, the child hurriedly hid behind Alice, who also protected the child behind them.
"Alice, don't let him go yet. I have something else I want to ask him later, so protect him first."
"I understand, leave it to us next."
Lu walked up to the child and said to him in a relatively gentle tone: "Okay, give them back what you stole from them. Return it to them now, and we promise to protect your safety."
"Okay...ok."
The child gingerly took out two money bags from his arms and handed them to Lu. Lu took the money bags from his hands and returned the two money bags to the gangsters.
"Okay, I'll return the money bag to you. Can you let this matter go?"
"Fart, how can this be enough?"
"That's right, what he stole was at least five times that amount."
Obviously, these two gangsters wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to cheat. The child quickly hugged Alice's thigh tightly and conveyed the meaning of "help me" with his eyes.
"It seems that we need to teach them a lesson, otherwise they will not know that there are four words like "fairness and justice" in this world."
The next moment, Lu's figure disappeared in front of the two gangsters. The next second, the two gangsters felt severe pain in their abdomens, and they fell to the ground and pressed their abdomens.
They raised their heads and saw the boy pointing his fist at themselves. When did the boy attack them? Their eyes did not see the boy at all, let alone when he attacked them.
.
"Is this...all of it?"
Lu looked at the other gangsters with a smiling expression. The two gangsters who fell on the ground also understood that they could not be the opponent of this young man, so they quickly changed their words and said: "No... no, we made a mistake.
, that’s all.”
"In that case, I'll give this back to you. Can this child's matter end here?"
"Okay...ok...whatever you want..."
The two gangsters took back their money bags and ran away in a crawl. If they angered the monster in front of them, they would die ten thousand times without being able to harm him at all.
After dealing with the two gangsters, Lu walked up to the child. After seeing Lu's appearance just now, the child was trembling with fear and even hid behind Alice.
"Alice's purse has also been returned. I won't notify the Royal Capital Guard this time. Remember not to do this kind of thing again in the future."
With that said, Lu took off her money bag from her waist. (Since 500 platinum coins were too large, Lu followed Alice's suggestion and exchanged one platinum coin for a large amount.
The remaining gold coins were temporarily placed in the space bracelet together with the platinum coins, and the gold coins placed in the pocket were counted as my usual purse.)
Lu put a few gold coins into the child's hand, then smiled and stroked his head and said: "Here are the money for you. Remember not to do this kind of thing again in the future. You were lucky enough to run into us this time. Next time
If no one saves you once, you will be in trouble."
"But, big brother..."
Alice and the others also felt that since they were helping, they might as well help to the end. Finally, Althea made a suggestion to Alice.
"Alice, how about you place him in your mansion first and let him be a servant? In this way, you can prevent him from doing such things in the future, and you can also give him a place to live. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?
?Anyway, I remember that you still have a lot of empty rooms in your mansion."
"Yes, that's a good idea, Alice, please agree."
Selena also thought this was a good idea and quickly urged Alice to agree, and Alice readily agreed.
"Um, big sister, are you a noble?"
The children have also sensed Alice's extraordinaryness from her noble temperament, and it is reasonable to draw such a conclusion.
"Yes, I am the third daughter of the Northfield family."
The child was completely shocked at this time. The Northfield family is one of the top nobles in the kingdom, and it is said that they have been promoted to the title of marquis not long ago. They can be said to be the nobles with a very high status in the kingdom!
"Yes... I'm sorry... I stole your money before. I'm really sorry..."
The child quickly lowered his head to apologize. This time, because he lowered his head with too much force, his beret fell directly, and a bunch of hair fell from under the fallen beret.
The bright orange hair that fell on her head reached over her shoulders. The impression she had just now completely changed.
